Purchasing information-
Overall fair to good condition, the brooch would benefit from a clean, there is moderate tarnishing and surface scratches throughout from general wear. There is a hinged support for the pin near the clasp, one tip of that has broken off. Pin in good working order. One of the smaller amethysts has a very small chip to the table facet, otherwise the amethysts are in good condition. The central amethyst show some windowing to one side of the stone, it doesnÆt have even colour distribution.
